NFL jobs like the Bears should be able to pick whoever they want from the College ranks. I've seen names like Kelly, Sumlin, and even Saban thrown around with regards to the Bears. Nothing credible, but just pure speculation. But those are the type of names NFL teams should go after.

Saban actually turned down Angelo and the Bears when they came knocking on the door at his Baton Rouge home in 2004 because they didn't give him enough money or the roster powers he so coveted. He left for the Dolphins the following year.

Adrian Peterson: Tore 2 ligaments and the meniscus in his knee week 16, PUSHED himself to make week 1 the next season. In that season, he had 1016 yards... AFTER CONTACT. Coming off of that injury, had the 2nd most yards rushing, EVER, vs a 9 man front almost every play because his QB can't throw.

Peyton Manning: 3 or 4 neck surgeries, sits out a year. Joins a team that went to the playoffs with a QB as starter who could not take the starting role from MARK SANCHEZ the next season. Peyton Manning was sacked 21 times, 2nd fewest among any QB who started all 16 games, and less than 5 QB's who didn't start more than 10 games.

Peterson deserves the comeback player of the year award, all Manning had to do was stand around all day and throw the ball. Manning took a playoff team back to the playoffs, Peterson took a mostly unchanged 3-13 team to the playoffs the next year all by himself.

They were a mediocre team that only made the playoffs because they played in the worst division in the NFL. There was a three way tie for the best record in the AFC West last season FFS. To say Peyton Manning's arrival didn't improve the Broncos significantly is pure ignorance. And it's not like Tebow couldn't take Mark Sanchez's job because he wasn't good enough...Tebow never became a starter with the Jets because Rex Ryan didn't want to put Tebow in as starter because he was afraid that Tebow would actually win games and blow Sanchez out of the water. So please quit using that as a reason. And LOL at you trying to downplay having multiple neck surgeries.

The only reason Tebow didn't start is because the Jets only brought in Tebow for publicity and ticket/jersey sales. Along with the fact that Rex Ryan and the Jets' front office stubbornly stuck with Sanchez even though he was stinking it up every game.

I agree that Peterson definitely should win Comeback Player of the Year.

Peterson rushed back from an injury, Manning did not. Makes Peterson's season all that better. And Manning is a pussy and doesn't take any hits back there. It's harder coming back from a knee injury for a RB than a neck injury for a guy hardly ever being touched.

I don't even know why this is being disputed/discussed. Adrian Peterson came back from major knee surgery and almost broke Eric Dickerson's single season rushing record. Game over, Peterson is comeback player and MVP.
